https://silverie.wordpress.com/2007/03/13/an-intergalactic-short-story/#respondTue, 13 Mar 2007 01:00:44 +0000http://silverie.wordpress.com/2007/03/13/an-intergalactic-short-story/I can’t remember how long we’ve been inside this Local Fluff, but does that matter anyway? It won’t be too long before this funky, rainless cloud gets off of us.

Ah well, back to work now. Gotta work hard if we’re to find somewhere else to live, hopefully close enough, around our own Local Group. Can’t get too careless here, lest ol’ slumbering dragon, Sagittarius A*, might decide to go rampant on us all, sucking our very existence into oblivion.

But worry not, if we’re lucky our dragon friend will reach us in the next few Googol years, so by this weekend I believe we can sit back and enjoy our vacation down the Magellanic Stream.

Okay, so I have a new project. From this day onwards, I will be creating one icon everyday, in hope that it will grow into a collection of icons that everyone can use for free (it will be licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License).

This is my first attempt of creating set icons, and for the first project I will be naming it Silveriecon. Basically Silveriecon is a 16×16, (not surprisingly) silver-flavored icon set. I already started today and I created not one, not two, but ten twenty-two icons today!

I love breaking my own rules.

Anyways, I just found out that this free WordPress.com account does not allow uploading of zip contents, so I will have to either upload the files to the many free file-uploading service out there, or I host it in my own space.Either way, I guess I will have to go find that upload space right now. No downloadables now, but will be soon.

Jordan’s King Abdullah delivered a remarkable address to a rare joint session of Congress and how much ink does the Washington Post give it: not one single word. A transcript of the King’s interview with PBS can be read here.

And I hate that! The time I waste procrastinating is the time I don’t spend with people I care/books I want to read/deeds I’d rather be doing. But it’s very hard to fight!

Combing my hair. I have a rather long, chaotic hair. Getting them combed literally keeps my head light.

Ensuring myself I smell okay (may or may not involve bath).

Not being too full and/or hungry.

Resting often (I’m doing the 30-10 method, i.e.: 30 mins of work and 10 mins of reward times for resting/gaming etc.).

Logging off Gaim. Instant-messaging is the mother of all distraction!

Listening to songs that I listened during succesful/happy times. I played Alter Bridge’s Broken Wing a lot while finishing a rather complicated application a few months ago, and listening to it now echoes that sense of victory back into my mind.

Talking to my mom about whatever. Having someone who is just plain nice and who won’t bother you about deadlines/revisions/work definitely helps a lot!
